My team for tonight Darlow Manqy. Schar. Clark. Lewis. Hayden. Hendrick. Fraser. Almiron. ASM. Wilson. Bench. Dubravka. Dummett. Krafth. S.Longstaff. M.Longstaff. Anderson. Gayle.
I’m going for a good win again. I was positive for the Everton game and they fielded their strongest team. Palace are different. But not as good technically. Worried that manq might be knackered.
Can anyone explain why people keep referencing a "diamond" from the Everton match, or why the BBC thought we played 4-3-1-2 (with Fraser up front)? As per DPP's team tonight, 4-2-3-1 seems correct but I still wouldn't start ASM, I would play Ritchie first half on the left and swap him at half time to give Max a full 45.
Same team for me but because Frasers sick max has to come in.. Home vs Palace this is it for me.. Get out the **** it stay in it
Not for me. Darlow hasn't done anything really to justify being dropped and has saved us on numerous occasions. A bit like what Dubravka was doing before he was injured.
I felt Darlow should have been dropped for Everton, but you can't now drop him because he was decent in the last match. We probably need to sell one of them, to make room for Woodman next season. As for tonight, I've checked all over and every site said we played 4-3-1-2, though I missed the first half - was Fraser really up front? Or was it another 90's throwback tactic, the 4-3-2-1 or "Christmas Tree"? Sounds much more Bruce that it was the latter, with Almiron left and Fraser right of the striker.
Not much option to be fair, but yes, Murphy will have to do. You guys got snow? I know it really doesn’t affect games anymore, but just wondered.?
